The two challenges organised by PinkHack (Plastic Free Beaches and Design Plastic for Circular Economy) attracted over 60 professionals, 6 teams, 32 participants and 25 experts.
The first prize of ProjectSprint (€1500) went to Project Margaret (Francesca Ricci, Veronica Paglialunga, Arianna Porciatti, Federica Maggitti, Costanza Corteggiani), while the third place (€500) went to Project Waste Away (Fabiana Protani, Laura De Vendictis, Alessia Tricomi, Chiara De Rossi, Aurora Fedi).
Due to the “excellent work and high level of competences of the participating women,” the organisers of the "PinkHack Award" have decided to admit 15 participants to ACM womENcourage 2019 in September.
